The Hourglass

I was starring through a looking glass
A faint portrait in faded photographs
A secret window to my latest past
Wishing that these days would always last
I am stuck tangled between these sheets
From when you woke up right next to me
We'll let our bodies break the morning light
A distant memory of fading nights
Wait for me somewhere between
Reality and all we've ever dreamed
I will be the hourglass
You'll be the time we're always running out
I woke up tangled between these sheets
Empty just like the company I keep
Forlorn and strangled by these memories
Forsaken, fading, sincerely me
Wait for me somewhere between
Reality and all we've ever dreamed
I will be the hourglass
You'll be the time we're always running out
I will fade like a memory
I am distant and falling apart again
Will you remember me?
Will you remember me?
Wait for me somewhere between
Reality and all we've ever dreamed
I will be the hourglass
You'll be the time we're always running out
Wait for me somewhere between
Reality and all we've ever dreamed
I will be the hourglass
You'll be the time we're always running
And you'll be the time we're always running out
